Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.01: 15 × 0.01 ≈ 0.15 km2, against the exact 0.15 km2 (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A hectare is smaller than a square kilometer, so the number of square kilometers must come out smaller than the number of hectares. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
